Freshly plucked from my garden, here are some colorful Pikmin amigurumi! They make a fun bouquet all together! Create your own garden with this free Pikmin crochet pattern.
Pikmins are cute plant-animal hybrid creatures made popular from the Nintendo game. They have different stages of maturation just like a regular plant.
You can start with a leaf, and then a bud, and then finally, it can bloom into a flower. You can help them sprout by planting them or feeding them nectar which is their favorite type of food.
These crochet Pikmin amigurumi are quite helpful and can help you accomplish your missions, whether it be chores around the garden, or putting your spaceship back together!
Here’s Red Crochet Pikmin at the very beginning stage with a green leaf on its head. He has a pointy nose.
Here’s Blue Pikmin with a bud on top of its stem. This one can also be differentiated by a red mouth.
And here’s Yellow Pikmin Amigurumi in the most mature stage with a full blooming flower on its head. This one also has ears!
While I was out in the yard enjoying a fun photo session with the Pikmin amigurumi, we had a little bird visit them as well! I believe the bird had little babies somewhere and somehow saw the Pikmin as threats and came to chase them away. 😂
Anyways hope you guys enjoy this free Pikmin crochet pattern and have fun planting and sprouting them! Happy crocheting in your garden! Be sure to tag me with your projects on Instagram @ami_amour. I’d love to see!

November 17, 2024 at 9:56 amThis pattern is so cute! Im making one as a Christmas gift 🙂
question: do we close the hole at the bottom of the body completely before we sew on the legs? or are the legs used to close it?
Ami Amour
December 23, 2024 at 2:20 pmYou sew the bottom completely closed before you sew on the legs, but don’t forget to stuff first!
